Unicorn craft share!

just how amazing is this piece?! Just stunning and I adore how the different material mediums work together here, especially the wool hair and the dreamy eyelashes....
The little girl I was, would have loved this on her bedroom wall!

BangBangCrash has some brilliant animal costumes, onesies and accessories beyond your wildest imagination...I think they will be featured again soon in another craft share! Its just that awesome!Aren't those ears amazing?I think I got a secret desire to dress up as a unicorn one day....but don't tell anyone!

I cant do a craft share and not sneak in a movie reference piece somewhere!Blade Runner was a childhood movie of mine when I was growing up. My dad let me watched it quite young and although i didnt have an actual clue what was going on, the film was so beautiful, the clothing and fashion both so futuristic and retro....I loved it!Rutger Hauer was my favourite actor growing up as he was in this film as well as my classic favourite "Lady Hawke"....man he was a dream boat!But the one thing I remember from Blade Runner? The man who left little origami when he leaves a place...as the film now has a huge cult following, there's speculations that these pieces each had meaningsYou can read one of the many articles out there here

But the Unicorn was always my favourite so to see this piece out there being made....total kudos! *thumbs up*

I've been a long term fan of Janine Basil's work and it isn't hard to see why! She predominantly works with glitter! go take a looksy at her shop!Janine is a rainbow haired, british girl who is pretty much working my dream job of playing and creating pretty things with sparkles and glitter! Follow her on Instagram, her pictures always cheer you up! (and to see what colour she has dyed her hair today!)If I wasn't so broke, I be buying her pieces every month! (yeah, you can tell I've got a bit of a crush can't you? *looks embarassed*)I hope to do a separate feature post on her pieces as they really are amazing and deserve a shout out at every opportunity!For me, this unicorn hits the spot with the theme for this post! I mean, when we think of Unicorns, we think ultimately of an image like this!

Temporal Flux has some of my favourite necklaces on Etsy including this sweetly coloured cameo necklace! It really is worth checking out the shop and look over the rest of the beautiful pieces in store.You can see more pretties like these! (i got my eye on that test tube rack necklace!)

"This magical headdress is themed after my favorite childhood movie, The Last Unicorn"Just amazing!I can see myself doing a burlesque routine wearing this magnificent baby!I love the colours and that crystal trim...and those feathers.....in fact I love everything about this!

"Its so Fluffy!"If you are a Minion lover like me, you will recognise this little fella as Agnes's cuddly pet unicorn that was so fluffy....well...Having seen some of the fluffy unicorns out there, I can say this is one of the best ones out there!The detailing in the knit is just brilliant and so tactile that you just want to touch it! I just love this unique touch! Very nicely done!

Hell yeah!This craft share, as always cannot be done without the inspirational craftsters and their crafty talent and spirit!Thank you for being most excellent! And keep up the good work!please support your local crafts!Birdie Lovexxx
